Due to my working on a day when no one else is working and a terrible feeling in the bowels of my guts, I hereby cancel today's usual dance party friday celebrations in lieu of a day of reflection on DEATH

there is no shame in it...I had a big head start.
I think that each person lives as an example of their own modus operandi in action. we can learn from or ignore as much as we like.
as far back as I remember I did the exact opposite of whatever my idiot brother did because he caught a hell of a lot of beatings. and deservedly so.
if he went left, I went right. if he lied, I told the truth...and so on.
so he was an example....in sort of a bad for him good for me way ...
and so therefore whether I am living as a good or bad example will be determined by any eventual outcome.
I used my brother as a human bulldozing landmine thrasher on the minefield of life until I decided which way was right for me and went for it.
I have no idea if the direction I am going in will end up, in the end. right or wrong but there is nothing wrong with letting me out on point. if i'm dumb enough to go out there and you're smart enough to hang back a few steps and let me clear a few tripwires then kudos for you.
the early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese.

and I figure...anybody that is waiting for me to leave to come in here doesn't have my best interests in mind...
the traps are pretty childish for obvious reasons....
Man, it's not fair that you are kind enough to give me glimpses into my mind 10 years into the future, and I just loaf around being me. Do my half-formed thoughts at least remind you of a time when you were slightly less conniving? Or am I way off base in the assumption of our similarities over the years?
Life is a weird *** ride man.
I've always been convinced the photographic memory was enough to notice a disturbance in the force, but some good booby traps couldn't hurt, could they? always 1 step ahead of me, you ole' dog.

I keep the door to my office in my peripheral just to avoid any such ***.
you gotta piss or go get lunch sometime though...
and I figure...anybody that is waiting for me to leave to come in here doesn't have my best interests in mind...
the traps are pretty childish for obvious reasons....
they are meant to cause embarrassment so that I can tell at a glance who was in here... and what they looking for...
one of them tripped the boss coming in while I was at my desk and he shot me a look...
all I said was... be careful...

I was working on another computer and had a reply all typed up when someone sprung one of the boobytraps in my office. they aren't lethal or dangerous or anything... if you step in the wrong spot it will pull a lamp off the desk or dump some papers on the floor...
or both in this instance...so someone was pretty determined to get to my desk.
now I just have to find the *** that looks flushed with embarrassment.... /ninja mask

What makes Hagglers think it works with retail is one of life’s greatest mysteries. It’s like OBO is written in tiny font every where they shop.
Because someone in 1987 offered to reduce their price 10% if they paid cash and they've been trying to get it work again ever since. Because the life of a penny pincher isn't actually about having wealth for a rainy day. It's a compulsive pathology.
Be careful if they kick the habit though, because they can very, very quickly go the other way once they learn the serotonin hit of impulse spending.
I've seen it!

I dunno. I dunno why there are people who haggle with stores over cigarettes. There are usually people asking for money and cigarettes outside QT too.
The corner store by my house used to have a guy who'd stand out in 100 degree weather and ask "Ey, you got 87 cents?" and rattle his empty 32oz soda cup. Sometimes he'd ask for enough to buy cigarettes.
Dunno how the dude didn't die, his life for like 3 months straight was to sit outside this store from about 7am to 8pm and sip on soda and smoke cigarettes in the summer heat.

TLDR: kids today don’t know how a basic line works, we’re doomed. I’m old. The end.
yeah the loss of common courtesy and common sense is a frequent "topic of conversation"...which is predominately one sided bitching from me...whenever my wife and I go out.
costco is a warehouse style, members only, buy in bulk type place making it... a decent place to shop if you are supplying a restaurant or restocking your doomsday/armageddon stockpile because you're crazy as a loon and you plan on being a wealthy toilet paper merchant after the fall of babylon... three guesses where I fit in in.
except they have these Cadillac Fleetwood 75 oversize shopping carts left in the middle of the isle by dipshits that are there just to cram their faces full of free samples.
People are there seemingly trying to get their yearly membership fee back in free food every day. if you make the mistake of going there near a meal time you'll see whole families crowding around these little stations set up near the end caps gobbling up whatever old woman are handing out....trying to make an entire meal out of handouts.
ok I get why they would want to hand out samples to people who are perhaps reluctant to commit buying a fifty pound box of something if they don't know it tastes like...but like every system in this godforsaken world it's only a matter of time before people start to abuse the system.
It wasn't designed to provide your whole family lunch on days you feel too much like a skinflint to go to mcdonalds.... AT LEAST have the courtesy to not block off the whole isle with your empty sideways shopping cart and your four wandering toddlers.
I've taken to "accidentally" crashing my cart into theirs... which... is not good at all... it's only a matter of time before a fracas breaks out in the frozen foods isle and I go all king kong levels of berserk ape ***on the place...
some people glare at me like I'm the one being rude until they catch my dead eye glare back... you know...the old... there aren't enough costco employees to pull this angry grizzly bear off your mauled husband before your children die of shock...stare.
which usually causes them to reconsider, apologize and move their stupid cart and quickly herd their children in the opposite direction.
but they just keep getting dumber... more self important..self absorbed...less considerate, less tactically aware of their surroundings...and less attune to the primal cues they should be receiving loud and clear in their defective reception systems.
/movieguy voice <dramatic music>
this christmas...prepare to receive a rather unexpected gift...
the gift of mayhem...in the most brutal story since the rape of nanking....
ARMACOSTCOGEDDON!
it's coming to a shopping mall near you!
I hate Costco. It reminds me of a crowded high school hallway during passing period. Must resist urge to shove the meandering slow *** in front of me. *** better not stop to talk or take in the scenery”
Which as a byproduct is also why I hate Disney theme parks and the Las Vegas strip.

Why don’t just buy GPCigs and skoal with the money they would save by not buying Marlboro?

I had one of those “God, I’m getting old and I fear for our country’s future” moments this morning.
Tank is on E, with about 32mi worth of fumes. I gas up at the station just off the reservation I’m working at today. The site is about 25mi in.
This gas station is across the street from a high school. Smart move on the owners part because the station market has an endless stream of high schoolers buying snacks by the dozen and 1$ 64oz fountain drinks. It’s basically a money-making machine.
Inside it’s Pandemonium. These little shits are 16-18yrs old and have no clue how a basic line works. There were 3 working cashiers and 1 main line all the adults were standing in and splitting off as they came to the front waiting to be called up.
“Next in line” and sure enough one of these dumb ***kids would act as if there were 3 separate lines and try to make their way right to the counter. Only to be told by the annoyed adult who was on deck “that’s not how a line works get in the back”. This had to have happened 7 times.
Now normally I would chalk it up to them being self centered little *** trying to cut off the old timers because *** them they’re past their prime and closer to death. Which is what we’re all waiting for anyway, right?
But I ***you not. Every time these kids got corrected they had this look on their faces like they had no idea how a line worked and headed to the back of the line in confusion. Murmuring to their friends that they didn’t understand what just happened.
TLDR: kids today don’t know how a basic line works, we’re doomed. I’m old. The end. Here, we have QuikTrip, where toothless tweekers haggle for cigarettes and dip.
"Well, if I buy a pack of Marlboro, can I get a pack of GPC and a can of Skoal half off?"
